Who Am I Supposed To Believe? You, Or My Eyes?
The Dodgers Ministry of Truth opens:
Are the Dodgers built to compete against San Diego, Arizona and San Francisco in the relatively weak NL West but to go no further?It all depends on how you define "mild":"Not at all," DePodesta said. "We have to beat the teams outside our division in October, not necessarily every time we play them in May.
"We get another crack at each of those teams in the regular season. I think we are going to live up to it."
J.D. Drew has been a mild disappointment with the bat, but he is a marked improvement defensively in right field. He reaches base even when the hits aren't falling and runs the bases well.That, and finding replacements for Schmoll, and Erickson, and ...
The return of Eric Gagne from the disabled list makes the bullpen whole. Yhency Brazoban, who had 11 saves in Gagne's absence, will pitch the eighth inning.

Rob;
I've held my tongue for the last few months but I now feel compelled to say something.
Based on yesterday's "Dodger Thoughts" post and yours today, you all seem to think Gagne is the second coming. I don't. Nor do I think he is the answer to the Dodger woes.
At first I was concerned that his recent arm injury was a carry over from last season. Anyone who couldn't see he was hurting at the end is blind. But now it appears that the recent injury is actually a new one which may be even worse than the carry over possibility.
Many people suspect he is on the juice and this is the beginning of a never ending string of injuries a la Kevin Brown.
We'll see.
